Alice in Wonderland at Whittard
Alice in Wonderland was one of my favourite books as a kid. I've still got the hardback edition of the Complete Illustrated Works of Lewis Carroll. My parents bought it for my when I was about 13, and my dad can still recite the Jabbywocky better than I can.
But when the Tim Burton film came out, everyone went a little bit Alice crazy. It lost its charm a little. But then I saw these Alice in Wonderland mugs in Whittard's and I'm just a little bit charmed again.
I love that all the mugs have 'drink me' tags on them when they arrive, and they're just £10 each. The only thing I haven't worked out yet? Where is the Cheshire Cat?! School boy error to miss him out of the range, surely?
I Agree about the Cheshire Cat, I would rather him than the Dodo!!!
ReplyDeleteOh this is lovely! Agree about the time Burton film, there's a really quirky Alice in Wonderland museum in Llandudno - its amazing!
